A Grand Romance: Will Hope Ever Find Another Like Bo On Days Of Our Lives?

It’s beginning to look like Hope on Days Of Our Lives will soon be alone again… naturally. Her marriage to Rafe is on the ropes, and divorce bells are ringing.

As for the flirtation with Ted (Giles Marini), he’s easy on the eyes and certainly a charmer, but he’s got too many secrets for a straight arrow like Hope (Kristian Alfonso) to overlook for long.

Let’s face it: Bo (Peter Reckell) was the grand love of her life. They had kids together, they buried a child together, and they came back from the dead for each other. It doesn’t get better than that.

Will Hope ever have another love that’s Bo’s equal? What almost 3,000 fans had to say about the possibility:

A Second Once In a Lifetime May Be Too Much To Ask
Get real, 81% of you dismiss. Hope was a baby when she met Bo. He was her first love. They went to New Orleans. He kidnapped her from her wedding on a motorcycle. He couldn’t keep the golden bird-cage she was sitting in from plunging into a swimming pool of acid. (Look it up; it happened).

Those kinds of things only happen to those who are young and in love… and in Salem. You can’t expect to hit those heights ever again. Your baby girl Ciara (Victoria Konafal) is the one one in a hot summer romance now!

Act Two
Everyone deserves a second chance at love, 19% of the audience argues. Sure, Hope has had them — and squandered them. Aiden (Daniel Cosgrove) was definitely a mistake. Rafe is busy playing Daddy to a baby that (he thinks) isn’t his — with Lani (Sal Stowers). Ted? See above.

But, that doesn’t mean there isn’t another Prince Charming out there. Sure, there may be no more motorcycles, no more vats of acid. But there can still be true love!
